Pokémon: Hard work pays off, moves can be upgraded infinitely.

The next day.

The faint morning light shone into the room through the curtains, which weren't very good at blocking out light, and fell on Mu Yun's face, stinging his eyelids.

He took a deep breath, picked up his phone, and glanced at the time.

7:10.

Normally he would be sitting in the school cafeteria eating breakfast by this time, but it's summer vacation now, so he chose...

Get up now!

Looking at the progress bar in his mind, which was already 98% loaded, Mu Yun was not sleepy at all.

After casually eating a red bean paste-filled peach and plum bread to fill his stomach, he went to the elf egg next to the desk.

According to the staff member yesterday, the hatching time for this elf egg is within the next two days, combined with the system in my mind, which shows a 1% loading progress bar every hour.

Mu Yun reasonably suspected that the day the progress bar finished loading would be the day the elf egg would hatch!

Perhaps it was the system's imminent awakening that filled Mu Yun with anticipation for the Pokémon egg in his hand, which possessed at least professional-level potential.

Transmigrator + System = ???

Nature is a bright and boundless road leading to heaven!

Originally, he was planning to coast along as a professional trainer, but now he naturally has the idea of ​​becoming a trainer!

As long as the system works well, he can easily switch allegiances and join the talented trainer family.

Of course, this is on the premise that the system does not charge fees.

Otherwise, given his relatively tight financial situation, he would still choose to start by nurturing a family.

Waiting is supposed to be long and tedious, but because of the anticipation, it feels like it passes by quickly.

As the time on his phone reached nine in the morning, the elf egg in his arms suddenly began to move.

"Buzzing~~"

A soft buzzing sound suddenly came from the incubator.

Along with the sound came a constantly flashing, bright white light.

Waves of white light, like the rhythm of life, full of vitality.

Upon seeing this, Mu Yun immediately followed the instructions and poured the nutrient solution that came with the incubator into the container.

The infusion of nutrient solution made the Pokémon egg flash more frequently.

Immediately afterwards, the fairy egg, like a thirsty sponge, absorbed all the nutrient solution in the blink of an eye.

next second.

Numerous cracks appeared on the surface of the elf egg. Mu Yun immediately opened the incubator and took out the elf egg.

Seemingly sensing the warmth of Mu Yun's palm, the eggshell of the elf egg cracked even faster.

"Click~~"

As the eggshell shattered completely, a sprite that looked somewhat like an enlarged version of an insect appeared in Mu Yun's eyes.

"Ugh~~"

A soft, sweet voice rang out, and Mu Yun looked over.

He had brown skin, and his body was like a series of smooth, round spheres joined together, about the length of Mu Yun's forearm.

It has a snow-white horn on its head and a horn on its tail, which is not yet very hard to the touch because it is newly born.

A pair of round, bright eyes blinked at Mu Yun.

They're quite cute.

This is one of the most common Bug-type Pokémon on the market—Weedle!

[Ding! The sprite egg has hatched, and the Heavenly Reward System has been officially activated!]

Ignoring the system notification, Mu Yun gently held the unicorn in his arms the moment it hatched, then picked up the Moo Moo Milk that was next to him and offered it to the unicorn's mouth.

"Ugh~~"

Smelling the rich aroma from the bottle, Unicorn murmured happily and snuggled into Mu Yun's arms, quickly sucking on the nipple.

"The Unicorn Beetle has a short evolution cycle, matures quickly, and has good physical attack and speed. I just don't know if it can rival Giovanni's Unicorn Beetle in the future with the help of the Unicorn."

Looking at the obedient and adorable unicorn in his arms, Mu Yun smiled slightly.

While the unicorn beetle was feeding, Mu Yun began to study the system that had just been activated in his brain.

The system's function is very simple, just like its name suggests: hard work pays off!

As the name suggests, hard work will yield results, and once you obtain the certificate, it is permanent and will not become rusty or regress due to prolonged disuse.

In addition, there is a task panel.

However, the above is currently a blank page.

[Ding! System successfully activated, newbie reward (Data Eye, 1 cubic meter of portable storage space) has been issued!]

Just as Mu Yun had figured out the system's functions, another cold electronic notification sounded.

"The Eye of Data, a portable space—rewards that were very common in online novels from my past life..."

Feeling a slightly cool stream flowing through his eyes, Mu Yun murmured to himself.

Besides the clear stream, Mu Yun also sensed a small storage space within his perception.

Although invisible to the naked eye, items can be stored and retrieved through perception.

He tried it out, and the furthest distance he could collect the signal was one meter, which wasn't far, but it was enough.

"Ugh~~"

After downing two bottles of Moo Moo Milk, Unicorn Beetle let out a burp, then snuggled into Mu Yun's arms, found a comfortable position, and fell into a deep sleep.

Newborn elves have a larval period of five to seven days.

During this stage, the sprite will fall into a long period of sleep due to rapid growth.

After gently placing the unicorn beetle in a small nest made of old clothes at the head of the bed, Mu Yun activated his Data Eye to look at the unicorn beetle.

..............................

[Elf: Unicorn Beetle]

Gender: Male

[Attributes: Insect + Poison]

[Level: 1 (Beginner)]

[Trait: Escape (Movement speed is increased when attempting to disengage from combat)]

[Skills: Poison Needle (Beginner, 0/10), Silk Spit (Beginner, 0/10)]

【Items to bring: None】

[Potential: Elite]

[Racial stats: 195]

[Limit Break Point: 0]

........................

"Escape... is a rare hidden trait."

Looking at the Unicorn Beetle's trait panel, Mu Yun instantly recalled the trait he had acquired after completing his final evolution—Sniper!

(Sniper: When hitting a vital point, the attack power becomes 225% of the normal value.)

Compared to the 50% power boost to Bug-type moves from the normal ability Bug Sense, Sniper's boost is significantly higher.

The only problem is determining the key point.

Based on what Mu Yun has learned over the years, the elves of this world are not the ordinary animals of his previous life.

There are no fixed vital points like "copper head, iron bones, and tofu waist" or "strike the snake at its seven inches".

Instead, it leans towards a luck-based judgment.

In other words, hitting a large wolfhound's head or kidneys could potentially trigger a critical hit.

Similarly, when a Pokémon's stamina is critically low, it doesn't die immediately, but rather enters a near-death state with coiled eyes.

As long as the malicious attacks do not continue, and with timely nutritional supplementation and proper rest, there will be no long-term effects.

This is why various competitions, such as Pokémon battles, are so popular.

Mu Yun could only attribute these strange "rule-based" phenomena to the work of some alpaca deity.

Pulling his thoughts back, Mu Yun looked down at the panel again.

The newly hatched unicorn has only two moves with proficiency at the beginner level.

After glancing at the description, "beginner" means that the Pokémon can only successfully unleash a move when undisturbed.

Just by looking at it, you can tell that this level of proficiency is not suitable for combat.

But it's okay, you just need to practice more, and you'll get better with practice.

I just don't know how quickly those ten skill proficiency points will increase.

We'll only know after a week of training the unicorn.

Skipping over the blank section for carried items, Mu Yun continued reading.

"Elite level!?"

Looking at the potential column of the Unicorn Beetle, Mu Yun's eyes widened slightly.

The potential of a spirit, from lowest to highest, is categorized as: Common, Veteran, Professional, Elite...

According to Elf genetics, the upper and lower limits of a child's potential largely depend on the parents' abilities.

Only a very small probability will result in a mutation with higher potential.

Mu Yun didn't think that with official screening, he could encounter such a low-probability event.

"Are all the Pokémon eggs in that hut at the Elite level?"

Mu Yun suddenly remembered that when they were in the gymnasium, the staff didn't take the Pokémon eggs from the outer shelf, but from the small hut.

Hidden rewards for high academic rankings?

It's unclear whether this is a policy requirement from Zhou Shijin or an internal arrangement by the school.

But in any case, the elite-level potential of the unicorn beetle is enough for him to use for a long time.

Moreover, the system also has the function of enhancing the potential of spirits.

[Limit Breakpoint: When a Pokémon's move proficiency level reaches its maximum, a Limit Breakpoint is gained. Consuming Limit Breakpoints can increase a Pokémon's potential or enhance its abilities.]

"I wonder how long it will take to reach the peak of skill proficiency..."

The Muyun Memory System categorizes skill proficiency levels.

From lowest to highest, they are: beginner, beginner, master, expert, and perfect.

"This is really tough work. You'll probably have to work hard in the future, Unicorn."

Mu Yun gently stroked the smooth skin of the unicorn beetle.

The unicorn, fast asleep by the bedside, seemed to be dreaming of something and suddenly shivered.
